The mainstream choice for Amazon sellers is their use of Amazon FBA logistics and there are three ways to ship to Amazon FBA warehouse in the united states are below.

International express delivery

International express companies, such as UPS, DHL, and so on will be given goods by domestic sellers. UPS and other express companies complete customs clearance procedures. This is because when goods enter the Amazon warehouse, they do not have a final recipient hence customs duties must be prepaid that is paid by the sender. Compared with other methods of delivering goods to Amazon warehouses, this method is faster. UPS and DHL can enter into Amazon warehouses without an appointment. Also, Express packages weighing more than 20kg enjoy preferential prices and fast arrival time which makes it perfect for businesses that need emergency restocking. Additionally, another advantage of international express delivery is that it doesn’t require an appointment to put items on its stock shelves.

International air transport plus express delivery

The freight company collects a certain amount of goods and then sends them first-leg air packages flying to the city near the Amazon warehouse in the USA while the customs clearance is done through a freight company agent custom clearance company before it’s delivered to the warehouse by the express company. This method is a little slower than #1 above but has low-cost rates for shipping products. Although its delivery turnaround may be slightly longer than direct courier services, it can be put into the stock shelves without having any prior date appointments fixed.

International Shipping (Sea Shipping + Truck Delivery)

In anticipation of filling a container with goods entirely before being shipped at once towards a U.S port near the Amazon store; this involves waiting by logistics trucking companies until all customer’s products fill up one container before loading them together as a whole unit that will be carried away from source point hence increased savings on volume discounts during transportation charges. Shipping to the eastern United States usually takes about 28 days, and to the western United States, it takes about 18 days. After unloading in the US, customs clearance for these items is completed by the carrier’s broker, who then delivers them to a warehouse using a trucking company. The products should be transported into Amazon warehouses by trucks that have been cleared through appointments made in advance with warehouse managers at Amazon, thus requiring the booking of an appointment number from Amazon for entrance authority.

This way of transportation has a long first-mile delivery time which is generally more than one month. And then there is truck delivery to Amazon after it is warehoused. It’s less convenient than express shipping, but the price is very affordable, so it can be used for non-urgent stock replenishment.

Finally, JSD Shipping suggests trying out multiple modes of transportation concurrently so that your product would remain available in stock. This not only allows you to continue earning and making a profit but also helps you save on transport charges.
